I now believe in Mercury Retrograde!

I am not a firm believer of astrology but sometimes there are things that astrology can give some pretty cool explanations.  One is example is the Mercury Retrograde.  It is the time when the planet Mercury appears to move backwards in relation to Earth.  Since Mercury is the ruler of communication, a lot of crazy things could happen during Mercury Retrograde. The funny thing is that it happens 4 times a year.

One of the Mercury Retrograde dates for 2014 is from June 7 to July 1.

During these time expect a lot of these:

1. Message unsent.  Emails, Posts, Text Messages could get lost.  If messages do not reach the target usually it will have a domino effect in epic proportions.  Recently, Facebook went down and a lot of people's lives got affected. I did not notice the downtime but the event made its way to the international news.
2. Fights. Couples and Friends could fight just because of simple miscommunication. Some people thought that the other person said or did something bad but the other person did not really mean it. Recently, a friend of mine thought that I was being a snub.  I was so surprised when people ask if me and that person have a fight.  I was like "what the!".  It was really odd. The next day another friend felt bad when my "disgruntled" friend became the snub.
3. Travel delays- Travel is one of the most affected sectors of a retrograde. Yesterday, the traffic was horrible because their was a lightning jeepney strike in the whole country. Retrograde or not, it affected millions of commuters who had a hard time going home.
4. The Past.  Since Mercury appears to move backwards, some people get reminded by many of the things from the past.  An ex-flame. Past lovers. Past frustrations.  Weird things could appear in dreams. You might bump to someone from the past. I guess the mercury retrograde has caught up with Bong Revilla et. al.

Be warned about these. You can probably avoid some of these things by making sure your messages are sent properly and making sure that the other understand what you truly men.  These delays usually cause more trouble so it is better to have more patience during these times. Kind words would be important. It is also key that you make sure that you double check all the things that could involve travel like tickets, schedules, luggages, etc.

I am sure that you noticed some weird things happening in the past couple of days. Have you experienced anything weird lately? Please share.
